Anchal Agarwal commented on RANGER-3142:
----------------------------------------
Thanks [~comma337] for the detailed answer. :)
I've already implemented a workaround which is similar to your approach i.e.
using the API. Since my use case requires different policies for different
groups, and my groups and users come from LDAP, I was trying to use groups in
the policies.
But because this doesn't work, I am now using the API to add users (of a group)
to the users list in the policies and this workaround is okay for now.
I hope that in the future I can use groups instead.

> I'm using ranger-2.1.0 for access control in prestosql-347.
> A policy with user list in 'allow conditions' works i.e. if I connect to
> presto with a user in the allowed list, my query returns the expected results.
> But instead of users, if I use group in the policy and try accessing presto
> with a user belonging to that group, then I'm denied access.
